Long One red cent Poems

Many of you live

patriotically and industriously
nutritiously and faithfully
in Western and Southern States,

United in this time of shrinking reservoirs,

teletubby heaven sent)
compromising financial means to pay rent,

telecommunications service provider (Verizon),
electric company (PECO), sparking pent

The Tooth Fairy is a thief
 And I know this is to be true

Another day without a dollar.
Another day, I’m not a scholar.
Makes me yell, scream and holler.
Another day without a dollar.

Another day, not one red cent.
Another day, must I repent?
What the hell, can’t pay the rent.

Been retired for over three years now
I've finally accepted this role
As a senior citizen sent out to pasture
